With her master's thesis, the author wanted to answer the research question, which aspects of business successful people include in their description of the perception and experience of envy in their work environment.
In her research, she used the method of grounded theory, with which she identified their perception on the basis of empirical data obtained through interviews of business-successful individuals. Through open and axial coding, the author formed eight main categories: an individual's experience of emotions and feelings, an individual's experience of envy, an individual's performance, a job, interpersonal relationships, business performance, problems and mutual support, environment and social responses. The author then explained the individual categories in more detail with subordinate categories and connected them with the existing literature.
The master's thesis sheds light on and deepens the understanding of the problem of the perception of envy of business-successful individuals, which is noticeable in Slovenia. The field of envy of a successful individual is well researched in foreign literature, but in the Slovenian field such research is extremely lacking. The results of the research work provide information that can help everyone who comes into contact with envy, and especially people who are successful in any field. Be it in business or private life.
